Vol.15, No.4, 375-380, 1998 Grinding Time for Control of the Size Fraction of Products in the Attrition Milling
Grinding tests for garnet were carried out by using an attrition mill under wet processes. Effects of feed filling ratios and a chemical agent (sodium hexametaphosphate, SHP) were investigated on the grinding time of the garnet. The progeny particles obtained were screened into various particle size intervals, which were 100 mesh over, 100/400 mesh and 400 mesh under. In order to estimate the mass fraction of the particles in a given particle size interval, mathematical models were derived from the first-order reaction model, then compared to experimental data. It was observed that variation of the feed filling ratio did not show a significant effect on the mass fraction of the product. The chemical agent was, however, effective so that the mass fraction could be controlled by adjusting the content of SHP.
